The 2016 issue of Silver Chinese Panda coins marked a stunning change in the coins from this silver bullion series. The coins are no longer available with weights measured in Troy ounces anymore. There is a shift in the weights to Grams, bringing the coins in line with the nation’s use of the metric system.
All of the same Silver Chinese Panda coin weights are still available, with slight changes in the total fine weight. These 30 Gram Silver Chinese Panda coins replace the previously issued 1 Troy oz Silver Chinese Panda, with the same metal content and purity, but measurements and markings in Grams instead.
On the obverse of the 2017 150 Gram Proof Silver Chinese Panda is the newest panda design from the Chinese Mint. It includes the new design of a giant panda sitting down as it holds a bamboo shoot, along with the now usual use of a bamboo wall in the background. Typical engravings include the weight, metal content, and purity, as well as the face value of the coin in Yuan.
The reverse of the 2017 150 Gram Proof Silver Chinese Panda includes the outer facade of the Temple of Heaven. Engravings on this side include the Mandarin-language text of “People’s Republic of China,” as well as the year of issue for the coins.
Controlled by the government of the People’s Republic of China and overseen by the People’s Bank of China, the Chinese Mint is the official sovereign mint of China. All Silver Panda coins and other Panda offerings come from the Chinese Mint.
